Benny’s Bertram

This is what happens when a boat dealer decides to do their own rebuild. It’s Ben Johnson’s 20ft Bertram brainchild, featuring a 350HP Suzuki and a stack of digital tricks.

Transom Raymarine, for when your knee's kneed to see the fish.... A bit kneedless, but whatever your kneed's are, ya knees will see the arches...

[@MrEli204]

I’m assuming it’s because the extreme angle of the screen on the console means you can’t see it while fishing.

I love these rebuilt Bertrams!They are such an iconic hull.

This is a triumph of modern ideas meets the timeless engineering of C. Raymond Hunt.

The way that the engine trim switch is positioned is genius! This boat is WAY outside my price range but it looks awesome and it's kitted out beautifully.. My rig runs an old school 130 2 stroke V4 Yamaha (Boat is a Caribbean pride albatross).

[@ROSCOGB]

Similar hull and cabin to my 1986 Haines hunter V198 Full rebuild 2008 350 Mercury IB Bravo ll leg Loves the swell Yeah ha Nice job on your boat congrats

[@AndrewWilmotAu]

Looks like the hull is very close to my current Caribbean Reef Runner, nice work. Big Motor!

[@Maddfisher]

Mint love Bertram’s

[@Jake-fo8xm]

Grant and Aaron Goodchild would have the greatest fucking fishing show ever! Someone call Brisbane Yamaha!!

[@officialWWM]

That fish finder probably cost more than my entire boat!

[@ShotBySolo]

Sooooo sick!!!

[@badgamergood6713]

I'd love to see an engineer do the dynamic load calcs on that transom, with the setback it must be absolutely out of this world as the hull comes down. Good thing its got the transom from hell Great Hull, Interesting setup. Potential for very clean water over the props if the running surface has been blueprinted, kinda similar to the old tube transom brackets that the yanks like (or you used to get on the old Frasers)

[@ct1762]

honestly i'd be concerned about 800lbs with what looks like 8'' of setback for a hull not laid up for outboard/s. i know Bertram made a hell of a boat, but still and aluminum 1/8th brace going all the way midships would make me sleep better at night.

[@scottnorris8074]

Make it pass 3c survey and I'll buy it!!

[@ct1762]

that must be the power-assist electric pump you can add between helm and motor. i'm sure that wasn't cheap haha

[@robokiss7822]

That boat looks just like mine but mine is a 22ft Concorde and put a pod for the outboard I put on

[@tomcrowder2658]

I thought the concorde was only 18 ft

[@problemsolvers2547]

absolutely awesome looking rig but the bait board is just out of place please please please do something about that. any glass board would look awesome but ive been extremely happy with the SeaKing board has all the stainless and mounting brackets included and look the part at a fraction of the cost

[@jude5815]

Hi love the Work Benny has done on his boat. Now I'm going to ask a girl question about the The colour combo. Would you mind sending me the name of the brand and name of the white and Gray paint please 🙏 Warm regards Jude
